Happy Place
Prompt: How can one describe what sensation one feels upon arriving at a place
The day begins gray and wet
the sun is dawning
the dew disappears on the brim of hope and breezes.
Surrounded by green pointed firs
That dare you to forsake your kurrs
Feel the breeze as it rounds the bend
And then returns like a long lost friend
It whispers my name and your name too
It is calling us out of the darker hues
“Look up at the canvas blue,” she says,
“Into the light of sunny days
fresh breezes and winter haze”
Caress the wind and kiss the rain
Sway with the dancing waves
All these cause a pausing gaze
Welcome to nature's stage
The warmth of the sun kisses my face
A new day just begun, here at my happy place
Notes: The reader is the audience watching nature’s play. It’s a call to go outdoors and imagine and enjoy living. Especially with all this technology to distract and keep one indoors.
